From the Jerusalem Post:
A prominent American Jewish organization is denouncing The Washington Post for posting an animated cartoon on its YouTube channel depicting Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu beating a Palestinian infant.
The caricature is aimed at apportioning blame equally between Israel and Hamas for the suffering of Gazan civilians. It was created by Ann Telnaes, one of the newspaper’s editorial cartoonists.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center declared its outrage over the cartoon. In a statement released to news agencies on Friday, the center’s associate dean, Rabbi Abraham Cooper, said the clip was “disgusting.”
“It is disgusting that The Washington Post would present an animated cartoon that is so profoundly removed from the truth,” said Cooper.
“Millions of Israeli citizens—men, women, and children—have been forced into bomb shelters and saferooms by thousands of missiles and rockets targeted at them by Hamas terrorists, whose open and avowed goal is the destruction of the Jewish state.”
“Even Israel’s enemies have recognized that Israel’s military countermeasures against Hamas have included phone and text warnings as well as leaflets urging innocent civilians in Gaza to vacate the targeted areas,” Cooper said.
“It is the Hamas leadership that openly uses the people of Gaza to act as human shields to protect their weapons of mass destruction.”
“Israelis are saddened by the deaths of four Palestinian children on a Gaza beach yesterday, but the blood of these innocent children is on the hands of Hamas leaders, not Binyamin Netanyahu,” Rabbi Cooper also said.

The Washington Post is acting according to character, trusting the American Jewish community will stay firm behind their "progressive" ideology, ignoring the plight of the people of Israel. All of my Jewish friends voted for Obama THE SECOND TERM TOO, being fully aware of Obama's stand on Israel, his actions on Iran in 2009, his support of Brotherhood, etc. I just cannot understand it. And although most of them are atheists, I'm sure they trust God's reassurance that He will never break the covenant, and that He will stand firm behind the Jews regardless of the many times his chosen people have failed Him.
I hope this time the Post went too far, and some people in the community will react and see reality. It is probably too late.
Elite opinion in the West has been increasingly sympathatic to nihilism, of the Islamist variety or otherwise -and it has become increasingly anti-semitic.
And if there's one thing the modern secular Jew values above all things, pace Karl Marx, it's entry into the world of the elites.

It's too bad for any individual Jew who sees it that way.
The elites are so stupid (when it comes to practical reality) that they can't wipe their own asses.
Look at how badly US leaders have fucked up the war against Islamic Extremism.
Look at how incompetent the UN is.
Look at how the Adademics have nocturnal emissions over any "people's revolution" even if the "people" are chopping off the heads of gays and apostates.
The elites are incredibly fucking stupid.
I have no respect for them at all.
